Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
113 I hate the doubleminded: but Thy torah do I love.
114 Thou art my seter (hiding place) and my mogen: I hope in Thy Devar.
115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the mitzvot of Elohai.
116 Uphold me according unto Thy imrah, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed from my hope.
117 Hold Thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto Thy chukkot continually.
118 Thou hast rejected all them that err from Thy chukkot: for their deceitfulness is sheker (falsehood).
119 Thou puttest away all resha’im of eretz like dross; therefore I love Thy edot.
120 My basar trembleth for fear of Thee; and I am afraid of Thy mishpatim. AYIN
121 I have done mishpat and tzedek; leave me not to mine oppressors.
122 Be surety for Thy eved for good; let not the zedim (arrogant ones) oppress me.
123 Mine eyes fail for Thy Yeshuah (salvation), and for the word of Thy tzedakah.
124 Deal with Thy eved according unto Thy chesed, and teach me Thy chukkot.
125 I am Thy eved; give me understanding, that I may know Thy edot (testimonies).
126 It is time for Thee, Hashem, to work; for they have made void Thy torah.
127 Therefore I love Thy mitzvot above zahav; yes, above fine gold.
128 Therefore I esteem right all Thy pikkudim concerning all things; and I hate every orakh sheker. PEH
19 And Sha’ul spoke to Yonatan [Yehonaton] bno, and to all his avadim, that they should kill Dovid. But Yehonatan Ben Sha’ul liked Dovid me’od.
2 Yehonatan reported [this] to Dovid, saying, Sha’ul aviv seeketh to kill thee; now therefore be shomer in the boker, and abide baseter (in a secret place) and hide thyself;
3 And I will go out and stand beside avi in the sadeh where thou art, and I will speak of thee with avi; and what I see, that I will tell thee.
4 And Yehonatan spoke tov of Dovid unto Sha’ul aviv, and said unto him, Let not HaMelech commit chet against his eved, against Dovid; because he hath not committed chet against thee, and because his ma’asim have been toward thee tov me’od:
5 For he did put his nefesh in his yad, and slaughtered the Pelishti (Philistine), and Hashem wrought Teshuah Gedolah for kol Yisroel; thou sawest it, and didst rejoice with simcha. Why then wilt thou commit chet against dahm naki (innocent blood), to slay Dovid chinom (without cause)?
6 And Sha’ul paid heed unto the voice of Yehonatan; and Sha’ul swore a shevuah, As Hashem liveth, he shall not be slain.
7 And Yehonatan called Dovid, and Yehonatan reported to him all these devarim. And Yehonatan brought Dovid to Sha’ul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
39 And when it became day, they were not recognizing the land, but a certain bay they were noticing, having a shore onto which they were wanting, if possible, to run aground the oniyah.
40 And the anchors they cast off and they left them in the sea. At the same time they loosened the ropes of the rudders and raised the sail to the wind and were steering toward the shore.
41 But having fallen into a channel, a place between two seas, they ran the oniyah aground, and, while the bow had stuck and remained immovable, the stern was being destroyed by the force of the waves.
42 Now the kesher (plan, plot) of the chaiyalim was that they should kill the prisoners, lest anyone, having swum away, should escape.
43 But the centurion, desiring to save Rav Sha’ul, kept them from carrying out the kesher, and he ordered the ones able to swim to throw themselves overboard first and to make for the shore.
44 As for the rest, some were on planks, others on pieces from the oniyah. And so everyone was brought safely onto the land.
